  19. Policies and Practices to Promote Renewable Energy J. Pershing, April 21, 2004

  20. RE Policy Mechanisms • Regulations that govern: • capacity • access to the market/electric grid • production or purchase obligations • Financial incentives • Industry standards, permitting and building codes • Education and information dissemination • Stakeholder involvement J. Pershing, April 21, 2004

  21. Obstacles High up-front costs Lack of access to the transmission grid Lack of information Constraining or inconsistent government policies Solutions Production tax credits Feed-in tariffs Public awareness campaigns Consistent long-term government policies Obstacles – and Solutions to the Introduction of RE J.

  25. Renewable Energy in the EU :Setting Regional Targets J. Pershing, April 21, 2004

  26. Key Policies: Germany • RE feed-in law: purchase obligation with agreed price for power generated from biomass sources (8,70 to 10.23 €-cent/kWh) of 20 MW or lower, and from wind (9.1 €-cent/kWh), solar (50.6 €-cent/kWh), or geothermal sources (7.2 €-cent/kWh), as well as from hydro, landfill, sewage or mine gas plants of 5MW or below • 100,000 Solar Roofs Program: supports the installation or extension of PV systems of at least 1kWp, offering special reduction up to -4.5% of market interest rates on loans, with a repayment period of 10 years and a 2 year repayment holiday. The possible share of financing is up to 100% to a maximum sum of 500 000 €. Overall program target of an additional 300 MW PV power J. Pershing, April 21, 2004

  27. Key Policies: UK • Renewable Obligation Plan: requires licensed electricity suppliers to buy specified portions of their purchases from renewable sources. Targets are a percentage of output of 3% between October 1, 2001 and March 31, 2003 (4.3% in 2004, 4.9% in 2005, 5.5% in 2006, 6.7% in 2007, 7.9% in 2008, 9.1% in 2009, 9.7% in 2010) and 10.4% by March 31, 2011. • Offshore Wind Capital Grants Scheme: totals GBP 74 million. Key programme objective is to stimulate early deployment of a significant capacity of offshore wind. the government will seek to ensure swift completion, making output from these projects available for electricity suppliers to respect their renewable obligation. J. Pershing, April 21, 2004

  28. Key Policies: Japan • New Energy Target : 3.1% (or 19.1m kl Oil Equivalent) of new energies in total primary energy supply in financial year 2010 (excluding hydro electric and geothermal energy). In 2000 the corresponding figure was about 1.2%. Targets : • PV: 4820 MW (from 330 MW in 2000) • Solar thermal utilization: 4,390,000 kl (from 890,000 kl in 2000) • Wind: 3000 MW (from 144 MW in 2000) • Waste power generation: 4170 MW (from 1030 MW in 2000) • Biomass generation: 330 MW (from 69 MW in 2000) • Regional Introduction of New Energy: NEDO incentive programme for local governments providing subsidy up to 50% of the installation cost to local public organizations, which introduce and promote PV, wind power, solar heat, differential temperature energy, natural gas-cogeneration, fuel cell, wastes generation, use of waste heat, production of wastes fuel, clean energy car, energy saving measures. Budget - 2000: 8.72 , 2001: 13.79 billion yen. J. Pershing, April 21, 2004

DE: 25 kW * 25 kW MD: 80 kW varies 10/25 kW D.C. 100 kW 25 kW 1 MW varies 25/100 kW 10 kW 100 kW 10 kW * 10/100 kW 25/100 kW 50 kW * varies 10 kW State-wide net metering rules only for certain utility types (e.g., IOUs only) In these cases, other utilities (e.g., municipal utilities, cooperatives) may have different rules. * # kW indicates limit on system size; in some cases, limits vary by customer type.

  37. Conclusions • Energy demand growth is continuing, and will require significant new investment • RE can fill part of this demand – but prices and regulatory barriers are keeping it from rapid market penetration • Policy mechanisms to overcome barriers are emerging in the developed world, with key players initiating major efforts; RE growth trends mirror these successes • Ultimately, the developed country RE future is bright only if policies can be sustained over a long period J.
